Vermont-based vitamin and supplement company New Chapter has launched Organic Holy Basil Booster Powder, its first-ever Regenerative Organic Certified (ROC) product.
The product is available exclusively online at the company’s website, and is produced using high organic agricultural standards to meet ROC. The launch reflects the start of the company’s goal to advance regenerative practices in the vitamin and supplements industry.
ROC builds upon USDA Organic certification by incorporating additional holistic practices to preserve soil health, animal welfare, and social fairness. Achieving ROC aligns with the company’s Climate Action Plan, which has helped the company achieve B Corp certification since 2014.
"From our earliest days, we've been dedicated to nurturing both people and the planet, and sourcing ingredients through Regenerative Agriculture is a natural, powerful extension of that mission," said Blaine Streisand CEO of New Chapter. "Regenerative practices are essential to address climate change and soil degradation, ensuring that we leave the planet better for future generations. This approach aligns perfectly with our vision of holistic wellness— one that cares for the environment, supports farmers, and delivers the highest quality supplements to our customers."
Organic Holy Basil Booster Powder contains a sole ingredient, 1,200 mg of small-batch harvested ROC Holy Basil per serving, which can be sprinkled into smoothies, hot teas, or other recipes. It is grown in and harvested from an organic farm in India, and the healthy soil it is sourced from is a key product feature, according to the company.
“Holy Basil is a remarkable herb that offers a variety of benefits including stress relief, cognitive function, and immune support. People can feel good about reaching for this superfood botanical supplement, which helps to replenish the soil as it grows on the farm we source it from. Because when there’s better soil, there are better herbs,” said Taylor Burt, MS, formulator at New Chapter. “We’re excited for our customers to reap the whole-body benefits of Holy Basil in a convenient powder form, while growing their sustainable lifestyles.”
For years, New Chapter has incorporated regeneratively-grown supercritical extracts into other products such as its Turmeric Force and Ginger force supplements. The brand reports that its first ROC supplement is just the beginning, and the company plans to embed these practices more deeply into its supply chain, and fund more research and education through partnerships with nonprofits such as the Rodale Institute.
